    Sorry for the delay, I will post the new BSOD reports (I think the tool grabs all of them) shortly. I will also run MalwareBytes full scan in the mean time.

    I'll attach the reports to this post, or if you reply, in the post after that so they'll be easily visible.


    Edit:

    Files are attached to this post.

    Let's run driver verifier and see if it catches any misbehaving drivers:

    I started up Verifier as the example shows. I guess I'll have to wait 24 hours to see if I get any results. Should I start up firefox since that is what typically causes the BSOD?

    My full MalwareBytes scan produced 4 results, but they were all false positives.

    Are there any other things I can do while we wait for the verifier results?

    So far I've run Firefox without any BSOD. It seems to be running smoothly from what I've seen so far. I'm about to uninstall Chrome and reinstall it since it won't load up (no GUI shows up).

    Are there any anti-virus or anti-malware measures I should take as well? I've run a full MalwareBytes scan but I want to be sure the computer is clean since I need to file taxes soon.

    Make scans with the following:

    -Kaspersky TDSSKiller

    -ESET online scanner

    In addition, run the tools referred to in the tutorial below as well as WDO:

    TDSSKiller came up clean.
    MSE came up clean (full computer scan)
    I'm looking into running ESET Online tonight.

    Am I able to disable the driver verifier now? (It's making my sound come out weird, but no BSOD thus far)

    Right now I'm unsure of what was causing the BSOD. The only things that have changed in the time were the removal of the Trojans (BHOs) and the tabs that I had open on firefox were removed due to the uninstall/reinstall of Firefox.

    Any idea of what the next step should be?

    I've requested for more help from my friends (I hope they post their input as I may have missed something earlier!) but I think we got to wait and see till the next bsod. BCC 51 is not a very common one..!

    Strange that verifier didn't pick anything when I was expecting it to ... scary

    To rule out hardware failure please do the following:

    Run Furmark to test your graphics card FurMark: Graphics Card Stability and Stress Test, OpenGL Benchmark and GPU Temperature | oZone3D.Net

    FurMark Setup:
    - If you have more than one GPU, select Multi-GPU during setup
    - In the Run mode box, select "Stability Test" and "Log GPU Temperature" (BurnIn test in newer versions).
    Click "Go" to start the test
    - Run the test until the GPU temperature maxes out - or until you start having problems (whichever comes first).
    - Click "Quit" to exit
    Run HD diagnostics to check you Hard drive for problems:

    Hard Drive Diagnostic Procedure

    Run memtest86+ for at least 8 passes to test your ram and the ram slots on your MOBO:

    RAM - Test with Memtest86+

    And finally run prime95 to test your CPU for errors:

    Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95

    post back and let us know how everything goes.
